gollark: I hope there will be a day when we have post-material-scarcity, and do not have to do much work.

gollark: Yes, but what usually happens is:- people work in industry- they are put out of work by this industry becoming less useful, or improving technology- these people complain at government- in order to obtain more votes, the government tries to prop up this failing industry or limit automation- people do more work for no good reason

gollark: Well, government be like.

gollark: Economy be like "we must ensure that people do the same thing as they have previously done regardless of how wasteful it is".
